Wine Brain understands cost/benefit and flexibility, so our services are divided into four key modules.

IDENTITY

We review current messaging and refresh communications content to ensure consumer cut through. We identify the philosophy, develop key brand messages and an authentic communications personality from which we can build experiential and engagement.

COMMS

We communicate the brand story, targeted at a range of channels. From developing web assets, social channels, email marketing, consumer and trade activations, media campaigns, awards and core festivals, trade or public events to exploring brand collaborations.

CONSUMER

We engage with the end consumer, leveraging consumer research, building the community IRL and bringing the brand story to life through strategic events, collaborations and sponsorship alignments.

TRADE

We engage with trade, from building a genuine and succinct story for time poor somms to relate to, creating a strong suite of sales and marketing materials for you, the sales team or distributor, offering trend advice, hosting tastings for the trade and staff education.

 
 

“Artisan producers are successful if they make a connection on a personal level. I’m not sure whether this was my philosophy before I started working with Wine Brain, but it certainly is now. They understand the story, the journey and the customer.”
